    I absolutely love Kool & The Gang! I saw them on stage back in 1976 at Kutztown University when they were touring their Open Sesame recording. They were playing opposite of The Blackbyrds feat. Dr. Donald Byrd. Can you imagine hearing Hollywood Swinging and Rock Creek Park all in the same evening? This video is magnificent in that it represents some of the finest moments in music history with the absolute best!! ❤✌🏽✊🏽

    I first saw the original “The Magnificent 7” aka Kool and the Gang at the Apollo when they simply stood and played magnificently and have been in love with their music since. My favorites from back in the day… “Chocolate Buttermilk” and “Fruitman.” Seen them last week at AC and was so glad I did. Kool is the last OG still standing and may they finally be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame for they are well overdue. Amen

    I follow koo land the gang from the beginning I'm a saxophonist just out of curiosity I've always wanted to know Ronald bells sax setup, I know he's playing Selmer Mark 6 .mouthpiece I know it's a link, is it a super tone ? or Florida? And what facing? And what brand of reeds back in that period I'm assuming Rico Royal, Rico, or la VOZ , those were the most common reeds in the '70s. Hopefully someone can pass this along . I know that Mr Ronald khalif bell passed away my condolences. But if someone know s that information I would really appreciate the saxophone setup thank you My name is Tony Harris.
